The Greenthal Advantage

The significance of quality property management for protecting assets and enhancing quality of life cannot be emphasized enough, especially when residential buildings are affected by so many unpredictable factors.

Greenthal is known for its innovative approach to property management. We were among the first firms to introduce electronic payment options to our clients, shareholders and unit owners for the payment of monthly maintenance, rent and common charges. Many of our residents enjoy ACH Direct Debit, credit card payments and e-statements, eliminating check writing and increasing on time payments. We also created a proprietary, copyrighted system for our Compliance Department to ensure timely payments of real estate taxes, mortgages, etc., and to facilitate the retrieval of important documents and data. Greenthal offers seminars for managing agents, superintendents and other building staff members. Subjects include new laws and requirements, building security, how the door staff can better service residents and other practical topics. Our professional education program has expanded to include board members and other real estate professionals who need to keep abreast of the latest legal, regulatory and operating changes affecting the management of residential properties in New York City.

The primary concern of our Accounting Department is to manage the cash each building receives and disburses and to maintain the integrity of our service we keep the two processes segregated. Employees of Greenthal’s Accounting and Financial Services Department attend monthly training sessions on financial control procedures. Our internal controls are stringent, and our accounting functions are strictly monitored by in-house and external auditors.
